what are your favourite examples of a memorable character who appears for just one scene in a movie?
- the more random and less connected to the actual plot of the movie they are, the better!
the camp costa rican waiter scene, and the 'horny nurse' scene, both from SAMURAI COP, prompted me to think of this...

The mom's breast cancer revelation from THE ROOM comes to mind.
